Thinner coatings cure faster. Keeps product rolling down the production line faster, gets product out the door quicker and reduces WIP (work-in-progress inventory).

Thinner coatings require less time in curing ovens, reducing energy costs.

Thinner coatings mean less material and waste, lowering waste disposal costs.

Thinner coatings and the attendant lower material volume contain a lower volume of VOCs (volatile organic compounds) so it’s easier (and cheaper) to meet clean air regulations.

Thinner coatings that are available today last as long as the vehicles’ warranties. That’s plenty long enough for the car companies.

Thinner coatings = bigger $$$
